What I am about to ask may sound confusing, but please bear with me.

Say I have "script a"(script_a.cgi) that contains a hash.

%script_a_hash = (
'name_test' => 'This Is A Name',
'des_test' => 'This is a description'
)

But I also have "script b"(script_b.cgi) that requires the use of variables from that hash.

How would I go about calling information from "script a" to "script b"?

Would it be done like*:

require '/scrip_a.cgi';

print $script_a_hash{name_test};

Because when I try that all I get is a blank screen.

Any help is appreciated.

Something else is wrong.

I just tested using your exact example listed above:

script_a.cgi:

script_b.cgi:

Output:
This Is A Name

Either your require file didn't get included (which SHOULD have thrown an error to you) or you had something else wrong.

--mark

I have no idea what could be wrong, it just doesn't work for me.

I used that same exact code as below, checked my Perl path, uploaded in ASCII, CHMODED, ran it, and get an error 500.

throw a

1;

in at the end of the script a file.

Thanks for all your help!

I finally managed to get it work. Once again thanks.
